The Revenge of the Reborn Supreme Sovereign-Chapter 294 - 289: Child, Live Well!
"He won't go down the wrong path, and your family won't lose him! His life and future won't be ruined! You can rest assured of that. Now, tell me everything. How did it come to this? If he's owed a debt, I'll help him collect it. If he has an enemy, I'll help him get revenge! If the sky falls, I'll hold it up for him! I'm not a saint, but I am his instructor. My soldiers will not be wronged!"
Sensing the utter despair for life buried deep in Cui Ru's eyes, Qin Fan spoke solemnly.
"I used to work at the hotel across the street. Last night, my boss held a dinner party there, and I happened to be the waitress assigned to their private room. He adamantly insisted I sit down and have a couple of drinks to liven things up. I couldn't refuse him; after all, he's my boss. At the time, I didn't think two glasses of red wine would affect me.
"But I never imagined that after drinking them, I'd start to feel dizzy. The next thing I knew, I was being brought to this Ningchuan Grand Hotel. It was the middle of the night when I woke up. I was alone in bed, and there were several stacks of cash on the table. On impulse, I texted my brother that I didn't want to live anymore, which sent him into a panic. He rushed out from his military post to find me. That's what happened, Instructor. I'm begging you! Please don't let my brother do something reckless. Don't let him ruin his own future because of me. It's not worth it... it's just not worth it!"
She didn't cry or scream. Cui Ru simply recounted everything in a low, hoarse voice. There was no hatred or humiliation in her eyes, only a vacant disillusionment that had twisted and coalesced into pure despair.
Yes, the moment the girl saw the crimson stain on the bedsheet, her heart had died. She had completely and utterly despaired of life. Perhaps in this sick world, countless girls would do anything for money, treating their chastity as worthless. But she was different. Her values remained deeply traditional. This girl from the mountains could face any hardship, but she could not accept her innocence being defiled. With her body tainted, she had lost all will to live.
"AHHH! AHHH! AHHH!"
As Tie Niu listened to Cui Ru reveal the truth, he clutched his head in immense pain and began to cry hysterically. Tears and snot streamed down his face. He hated everyone connected to this incident, but he hated himself more for failing to protect her. If it weren't for him, Cui Ru would never have come to Ningchuan. If she hadn't come to Ningchuan, this would never have happened! It was his fault. He was the true culprit.
"They have to die! DIE! They all have to die!" Tie Niu let out a heart-wrenching, tear-choked scream.
"Brother!" Cui Ru shrieked, her calm facade shattering as she began to tremble violently.
But before she could say more, Qin Fan's hand chopped down like a blade, striking her lightly on the back of the neck. She fainted instantly.
"Instructor!" Tie Niu shouted, his brow furrowing instinctively.
"She's only temporarily unconscious. You know how it works," Qin Fan said calmly. "She isn't fit to hear what comes next, so let her rest for now."
"What comes next?" Tie Niu asked quickly.
Without immediately answering, Qin Fan slowly sat on the edge of the bed. He let out a soft sigh and said, "You may not fully understand your sister's state of mind right now, but I'm telling you, she wants to die. And her resolve is absolute."
"No, no, no! She can't! She can't die! Cui Ru can't die, she just can't!"
At Qin Fan's words, Tie Niu suddenly seemed to snap, shouting like a man possessed.
He knew his sister, perhaps even better than their own parents. Live on while shouldering this kind of psychological trauma? That wasn't Cui Ru's way. Just as the instructor said, she wanted to die, and her resolve was absolute!
"Instructor, help me, I'm begging you! Cui Ru can't die! She mustn't die! She can't, she can't!" His composure completely shattered, Tie Niu grabbed Qin Fan's hands, shaking his head violently as he sobbed.
"I can make her forget everything that happened. But I can't change the fact that it *did* happen," Qin Fan said solemnly. "Can you accept that?"
Forget everything? Does that mean Cui Ru won't be left with any psychological scars? Does that mean she won't be so determined to die because of this?
These two possibilities flashed through his mind. With trembling hands, Tie Niu clutched Qin Fan's arm and pleaded frantically, "Instructor, yes, yes! Make Cui Ru forget everything! Please, make her forget everything, I'm begging you!" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚
"Go outside for now. Come back in when I call for you," Qin Fan said.
"Outside... I'll go outside! I-I'm going!" Tie Niu gulped audibly, then stumbled out of the room.
In the vast hotel suite, only two people remained: Qin Fan, his face a mask of chilling fury, and the unconscious Cui Ru on the bed.
Drugged. Defiled. The hateful words echoed in his mind. Once again, an act this vile had happened to someone near him. The tragic fate of Yinuo and his elder sister from his past life surged uncontrollably through his memories.
After a moment, Qin Fan forcefully shook his head to dispel the agonizing memories. He exhaled a long, heavy breath, then slowly began to channel True Qi into his palms.
